Remove future months from a bar chart Year on Year Comparison
Hi Everyone,
I have spent some time trying to find a solution to my issue in different forums, but with no luck. Hopefully, it will not be a duplicated issue or someone can help me out.
I have the following bar chart, which calculates the difference between 2023 and 2022 with the number of pieces.
The chart and the metrics on the chart work perfectly fine, as you can see we have the comparisson for January (-38.8% less pieces than in January 2022). The PROBLEM is that I have been trying to hide or remove the values of the future months (on this case, today is 11th of January, so all the values from February onwards), but with no luck.
What I tried is to use the following: IF ( MONTH('Table'[Date]) <= MONTH(TODAY()), [6. YoY 22vs23], 0), but for the first statement (<logical_test>), I can not use a column, only a measure and I can not convert my actual month_name date into a measure.
This is my sample data:
Many thanks in advance.

As a solution in PBI, only applying a filter to the visualization that is different than -1, already removed the future months due to the metric was the difference between months on YoY, so if we do not have data on 2023 yet, I would always be -100% = -1.

@Anonymous , Create a measure like
IF ( MONTH('Table'[Date]) <= MONTH(TODAY()), [6. YoY 22vs23], Blank())
or create a measure like
if(max(Date[Date]) < eomonth(Today(),0) ,1,0) and use that as a visual level filter value =1

Hi @amitchandak , the problem I have is that in this specific data set I do not have the proper date, only month name or month number, and when I try to use these both in the creation of the measures it does not recognize them.
I already found a solution in SQL creating a case statement with "0" and "1" when the month_date is higher than the current date and using it as a filter, but I would like to know if there is a way to solve it in PBI.
